Apologies to for letting this languish. I was waiting on an upgrade and the system administrators upgraded to 1.6.6 on Ubuntu. The repository and branch were created on 1.5.1 using cvs2svn. The branch was created using svn copy between URLs.

My problem is that when I upgrade trunk to branch I get lots of conflicts and messages to the effect that the whole history is getting merged.

I tried the fix suggested by Stefan Sperling:
<branch-working> svn merge --record-only -r0:1606 TRUNK_URL

which produces no output. Then I still get the following behavior:
<branch-working> svn merge TRUNK_URL
--- Merging r2 through r1618 into '.':
   C test
   C exec
...

Neither:
<branch-working> svn propget svn:mergeinfo
nor
<trunk-working> svn propget svn:mergeinfo
produces any output, even after I do the record-only merge. Even when I create a new branch (by copying URLs) in 1.6.6, checkout the branch and attempt svn propget I get the same behavior. Anyone ever seen this?

Thanks,
Eli
